ming. and the audience were as orderly as
possible.
The marshals had no other duty to perform
than which is imposed In showing visitors to
seats in the hall. The courtesy and attention
of the marshals to each and every one, made
all feel glad to be the guests Of dignifled and
polite young gentlemen.
The string band, under the leadership, OF
DIR. Edwards of Due West, furnished the
choicest music at proper times. The variety
and excellence of the whole performance
interested the auditors from first to last.
The President in appropriate and happy
terms introduced succcssivcly the speakers.

At the conclusion of Mr.. Sibley's speech
the following programme Of exercises was
then gone through with, excepting the omis

by the President in his speech Of welcome:

The young gentlemen acquitted themselves
most creditably, but as their speeches were
extracts, and as we can print nothing of theii
eloquence, their grace OF manner, or theil
powers CT oratory, we ask the reader to take
our expression Of pleasure at their efforts, in
lieu Of their speeches.
The original speeches which are to follow
are remarkable for purity of style, and ele
gance of diction, while the authors, in mod
est way, give convincing proof OF familiarity
with the subject under discussion, the whole
gives the best evidence of the thoroughness
with which the students have been taught.

Consequently it is an every day occurrence

Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE great desideratum with mcr

The local department furnishes full and
